Milan in that bad a financial situation then?

I thought most Italian clubs were heavily riddled with debt. The bigger clubs more so.

Yeah I just thought new owners gave them a boost

Raiola was asking for a €20 million fee for the renewal. Seems like he also didn't get the €8m / season he was asking for. Milan, primarily Maldini, cut bait early and moved onto signing another goalkeeper instead.

At some point they couldn't keep giving into ludicrous demands from a player.

So less money and more go fuck yourself

PSG made the most sense. The other possible destinations weren't gonna be able to pay his wages without making a big sale and that was not gonna happen.

Leonardo is such a bad sporting director. 

Everyone knew that Donnarumma and Raiola were going to let his contract expire, so why did he offer a contract extension to Navas? I mean, if you´re planning to go all in on Donnarumma, it doesn´t make sense to re-sign your current goalkeeper.

Navas has every right to feel betrayed.  

 

 

 

Having said that, in my opinion both Donnarumma and Courtoais are better than Navas. The reason? Height. 

To me, Navas, despite having great reflexes, is too short for a goalkeeper. At least, according to the present standards. 

 

EDIT: This pic puts what I said about Keylor´s height in perspective.

What a free transfer that is, potentially the best goalkeeper in the world for the next 15 years and you are picking him up for nothing!!!
